Valley of the Temples & Scala dei Turchi Day Trip

Join us on this day trip to the Valley of the Temples and the Scala dei Turchi, where you'll visit significant sites in Sicily.

Day Trip Details

At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Catania to begin the trip. During the journey by minibus, we will share information about the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. Upon arrival, you will have time to explore the site at your own pace, featuring seven preserved temples, including the Temple of Concordia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

You will also see remains of temples dedicated to gods such as Juno, Hercules, Hephaestus, and Athena. Lunch will be at the bar of the Archeological Museum of Pietro Griffo, with a menu including sandwiches, water, and wine.

After lunch, we will visit the Scala dei Turchi, a distinctive white rock formation rising from the Ionian Sea. You will learn about marl, which gives the rocks their color, and the origin of their name, followed by free time to explore the area.

Finally, we will return to Catania, dropping you off at your hotel after a day trip lasting 9-9.5 hours.
